"We can verify uptimes as another source of keeping devices in compliance."
"The ability to pull hosts together to show what processes are running, so it can be used for change management."
"The solution's event management capabilities are fantastic. We do a best of breed. If, on the network side, they use a different tool, we pull all that data in so that we have a single console. It's kind of like the monitor of monitors. We're able to aggregate all the different types of data sets, whether it's log data, app data, OS data, infrastructure data, or network data. We're able to aggregate all those events and then correlate and be able to say we're having an event."
"The tool is flexible enough to be customized based on customer requirements."
"Helix Innovation Studio is a very good feature. It allows us to develop our own enterprise applications and make them available for the customers."
"The event management tool builds correlation logic and protection algorithms into a field of events that is valuable when a data center goes down."
"Intelligent solution with a proactive monitoring feature and consolidated dashboard that's stable and easy to scale."
"It allows our operations team to have one single application to reference when investigating issues in our environment."
"It has always been a stable solution."
"The product has connectors to many services."
"The architecture and system's stability are simple."
"We can view and connect different sources to the dashboard using it."
"Machine learning is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"The solution has been stable in our usage."
"The most valuable feature of Elastic Observability is the text search."
"The ability to ensure that the data is searchable and maintainable is highly valuable for our purposes."
"The solution is overly complex."
"We were somewhat limited in TrueSight due to some of the RBAC controls not quite being what we wanted as far as delegating out administrative privileges for implementation. But because we were able to turn requests around pretty well, that burden wasn't too heavy."
"The dashboards are not good. We have a limited dashboard, and if we want better dashboards, we need to use other solutions like Grafana because the TrueSight dashboards are not good."
"There are some small limitations with this tool in terms of reporting dashboards that fit all of the requirements of the individual customer."
"BMC's solutions for cloud monitoring (monitoring of AWS and Azure resources) are very poor in stability and customization."
"Reporting would be an area for improvement in TrueSight... We have almost 800 customers today on TrueSight and just under 10,000 assets. We need to be able to give a customer some information. If the customer's product fails, they'll ask us, "Did it have a problem beforehand?" We have all those events and we know all the problems it had beforehand. We have to be able to give them access to that kind of reporting. That's an enhancement that we need."
"This solution is lacking in application monitoring features. Technical support for this solution also needs improvement, particularly in product knowledge and response time."
"The stability of BMC TrueSight Operations Management needs improvement. My organization's infrastructure is vast and implemented based on BMC recommendations, but the solution needs to be optimized for large-capacity infrastructure."
"The cost must be made more transparent."
"The solution needs to use more AI. Once the product onboards AI, users would more effectively be able to track endpoints for specific messages."
"The solution would be better if it was capable of more automation, especially in a monitoring capacity or for the response to abnormalities."
"Elastic Observability is reactive rather than proactive. It should act as an ITSM tool and be able to create tickets and alerts on Jira."
"Elastic Observability needs to improve the retrieval of logs and metrics from all the instances."
"Elastic Observability’s price could be improved."
"In the future, Elastic APM needs a portfolio iTool. They can provide an easy way to develop the custom UI for Kibana."
"Improving code insight related to infrastructure and network, particularly focusing on aspects such as firewalls, switches, routers, and testing would be beneficial."
